Driving trails may need 4W drive. If you like wild natural areas this place is epic. Rustic white sandy beach launch, into black water for kayaks. Steep, path down to the water’s edge. 11 miles paddle to St Marys Cove. Lots of strainers and trees in the water. Watch water levels this trip could take 4-6 hours with a 30 minute lunch. The park is under used but the public and is primitive. Couple of covered shelters and clean bathrooms. Don’t leave valuables in your car if you’re parking for a shuttle.
If you have 4 wheelers / side by side this place is awesome, but it is a little flat for dirtbikes. If you are on a dirtbike there are "hidden trails". There is a sign and like a one way track through several areas for increased difficulty.
We had an absolute ball... It was great getting to ride down to the river, the trails are definitely beginner level but they were ideal for riding with small children!
And there were clean restrooms!!♥️
This place is off the main tourist route. Wilderness area, ATV and horse trails mainly with a couple of covered picnic areas. The Swimming hole located on the map at the second gate is a decent gorilla kayak launch site into the St Mary’s River. 10 mile paddle to the next public take out called St Mary’s Cove. Beautiful black water creek and almost not human evidence or motor sounds. I love this place. 4 stars are because the road need improvements and kayak launch needs to be put in. Bathrooms need updated and cleaner. 5$ entrance fee.
Great place to go ride your ATVs. We went out with 2 dirt bikes and had a blast. Lots of single track at all different levels. Even a spot to go cool off in the st Mary’s river. Small fee to get in, goes towards maintaining the park. No glass allowed. Didn’t have any photos because we were too busy riding to be playing on the phones.
Love riding the dirt bike in all the trails,Great Place !!!
It's a bit deceiving when you first enter at the ATV entry. Once we figured out the other entrance and paid out 5 bucks for the vehicle parking all was good to go. We drove back to the river access and paced several ATV and Horse trails along the way. Definitely need to bring the quads and horses here on future trips. All in all a nice park area with great access to trails and nature.
Had a great time. Plenty of trails and pretty well kept.
